The ad says it has a Duratec. Alternatively though, that doesn't look like a 2002 Duratec when you see the underhood picture.
I think it's a Vulcan motor. From what I remember, Duratecs were optional on SES and standard on SEL, but I don't think they were available on the SE. I could be wrong though, they could've been optional on the SE too.

They have a sale at the local Ford dealers for brand new 04 Tauruses for $10,999.00. The Chevy dealers have the same deal on 04 Impalas. Whatever they don't sell, they mark down.

Oh! Well I spent more than that on this 2002.
What kind of 04 Taurus could I have bought for $10,999.00? Maybe I should have done more research.
Regardless, I am too old for buyer's regret anymore. My wife will like this car just fine.

Works pretty good if you have the means!

Seems like a great way to spend money if you're in the market for a safe, comfy, reliable method of transportation for someone. Not everyone is in the same market when shopping for a car.
